Project:
Foreste da Vivere, an initiative promoted by Assessorato allAgricoltura della Regione Lombardia (Regional Council of Lombardy for Agriculture) and organised by ERSAF (Regional Authority for Agricultural and Forest Services), promotes the 23.000 hectars of Forests of Lombardia through sports and cultural events, excursions and many other initiatives. ERSAF has the function of organising technical and promotional activities for the development of agriculture and forest sectors, for the protection of the rural territory, for partnership and integration policies in the management and planning of agriculture, forest and local alimentary products.
Masino Valley, located in the Valtellina area, is well known for the thermal water spring of “Bagni”, and entirely surrounded by woods. Besides the thermal baths, mountainous landscapes, pasture lands and woods, Masino Valley is also important for being part of the regional Park of Bernina, Disgrazia, Val Masino e Val Codera , and it is already in the European list of the Community Important Sites. ERSAF is active on the territory with many projects, as protection and valorisation of biodiversity of endangered habitats. Legambiente promotes the project in collaboration with ERSAF, working with the program Foreste da Vivere, which aims to develop educational and informative activities, turned to the local community and the numerous hikers visiting the surrounding valleys. After a period of training in the Permanent Centre for Volunteers and Environmental Education of Legambiente Lecco in Campsirago, the volunteers will take care of the Visitors Centre in Bagni di Masino, organising activities of promotion of environmentally friendly practices addressed to tourists, didactic and informative activities concerning the respect of nature and the projects and initiatives of ERSAF and Legambiente, animation and environmental education for kids and works of ordinary maintenance of natural areas. During the period of the project other voluntary activities will be organised and hosted in the same building (not all at the same time): international Medium Term Volunteers for the whole summer period, a workcamp for under 18 volunteers, 4 weeks of environmental holidays for kids (from 8 to 13 years old), a workcamp for families.The MTV volunteers will collaborate in the activities proposed to the other volunteers, making interventions of environmental maintenance to ameliorate footpaths and grasslands, helping in the preparation of small exhibits, supporting as animators the leaders of the camps.
The working language for participants will mainly be Italian, due to the nature of the project.
Work: education activities and maintenance of natural areas
Accommodation: ERSAF guesthouse

- Description:
-
The church of reconciliation, an impressive neo gothic brick building, was built in Berlin in 1894. When Berlin was split into occupational zones in 1945 the parish became divided – the church itself was located in the Soviet sector while most of the parishioners lived in the neighbouring French sector. When the Berlin Wall was erected in 1961, it passed directly in front of the church. Consequently, the church was no longer accessible from either East or West Berlin and fell into disrepair.
In 1985 the church was demolished in order to, as the GDR government officially declared, “increase security, order and cleanliness at the state border of West Berlin”. The wall came down less than five years later and in the summer of 1990, the official demolition of the border facilities began. The grounds of the Church of Reconciliation lay waste and were being made to remove the traces of division as quickly as possible, the parish of the church contemplated how best to deal with this place and its history. After the site was returned, the parish decided to erect a chapel on the foundations of the old church with the simplest of means; a modern building to meet the requirements of both the present and the future, whilst protecting preserved traces – but without reconstructing that which was lost. Furthermore, the building was to be ecologically in keeping with the times by using resources sparingly and being built to last. The parish chose a design of two concentric oval buildings with offset axes. The outer oval, made of wooden slats, takes the alignment of the former Church of Reconciliation, the inner oval of rammed earth is aligned East-West as is otherwise customary.
The rammed earth body was erected in 1999. Open Houses volunteers from fourteen East and West European countries supported him. The earth-moist clay was poured into a form-work in 30 centimetre thick layers and compacted to about eight centimetres. On the 9th November 2000, the 11th anniversary of the opening of the Berlin Wall, the Chapel of Reconciliation was inaugurated. It is the first public compacted clay building in Germany built in over 150 years and, at the same time, the first German church of load-bearing compacted clay.
The new place, created through the building of the chapel, could not have been planned in this way. It has grown organically and taken on a life its own. The place unites and combines innovative approaches to architecture, ecology, culture of remembrance and European communication. Its appeal is a result of this combination. Open Houses is particularly concerned with shaping the Chapel of Reconciliation as a meeting place for young people from different nations.Work:
The volunteer lives alone in a flat in Berlin, Wedding. For travelling to the chapel and for leisure time he gets a bicycle. It takes around ten minuets by bike to the chapel.
The volunteer is a kind of a tourist guide. The visitors are people who are interested in architecture, history and ecology. Normally all visitors are in small groups or on their own.
S/he has to support and care for the visitors and administrate the guest book. S/he works inside the chapel, but it might be a bit cold inside because it is not really heated (for environmental sustainability reasons).
Hours of work: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
The working days are not strictly from Monday till Friday. S/he has to work five days per week.
The volunteer can eat lunch in the staff cafeteria of the roll church (Schrippenkirche). This is only across the road from the chapel. From this cafeteria s/he can take home a diner and breakfast.
The atmosphere in chapel is intimate and private. For this reason it is very important for the community that the volunteer fits in. There should be a harmonic relationship between the priest and the volunteer.
The community is evangelic. The volunteer does not have to be religious but s/he should be tolerant and open minded. Every noon there is a remembrance of the dead people of the wall, every Sunday there is a church service and over the year there are different intercultural arrangements.Schedule:
The volunteer arrives in Berlin to have a look at the chapel and to meet the priest and the other responsible persons of the community. The same day or next s/he goes to Lohra castle. There s/he stays two weeks to get to know our association. (Please have a look in our camp description of Lohra castle.)
The volunteer lives with the family of the priest the third week of the stay to get to know each other. After this week the community and the volunteer can decide if they want to work together. If the chapel or the volunteers decide not to work in the chapel, the volunteer can participate in our workcamps, or go back home. The last week of the stay their three month volunteer has free time; s/he can travel in Germany for example (on her/his own cost).Location: Berlin

Location:
For the 5th year Verona will host international volunteers during the entire year. Verona is a very famous city (do you remember Romeo & Juliet by Shakespeare?) in the North East of Italy; it is a very touristic place with a long history and culture; rich of historical monuments, first of all the famous arena (the ancient roman theatre). Even it is a great example of fortified town, in fact the walls and the surrounding area are going to become a national park. Unfortunately some parts of the area are still damaged and abandoned.In the Voluntary Centre of Legambiente Verona, volunteers participate in two different projects. Both projects are similar: the common goal being the protection of the environment, and in particular of the two most important Urban Parks in Verona.
Read both projects carefully, and express in the motivation letter your preference, keeping in mind that volunteers from both projects will be in continuous contact. The local group will consider the volunteer choice and decide the place to stay according to the preference of the volunteer and the needs of each project.
I. Park of the Walls
Description of the activities
The working time will be: 30 hours a week
Verona is an exceptionally beautiful example of fortified towns. You can see evolution of a tradition through centuries. The Walls of Verona are a complex set of different types of architecture. All this area is slowly becoming a Park. Unfortunately most part of it is just a huge relict, damaged and abandoned. In this area Legambiente is deeply involved in action of restoration and re-evaluation of a great green space. The aim is to turn into a park the area comprehended among four bastions of 800 and remains of walls of 500. A great part of the work is done, but the park still needs maintenance and continuous actions to improve it and obtain the final result of a beautiful recovered green jewel.
Volunteers will be involved (along EVS volunteers) in custody of the Park (opening and closing gates), gardening, cleaning, construction, etc. They will collaborate with the local group of Legambiente in activities of the Association (like guiding tourists through the town, among others, of course in collaboration with guides of the Association). Sometimes, these four bastions host drug addicts, prostitutes or homeless people who find place to stay for some hours. It is not dangerous, and you will not work alone. There is a technician responsible for the maintenance of the Park and another person responsible for volunteers and their integration in the project and in the town.
Activities vary from season to season, due to the fact that the park has different needs as the weather changes (for example, cutting the grass in spring, watering the plants in the summer, gathering leaves during autumn, cutting wood during winter, ecc); and also due to the fact that the association is involved in different kinds of projects during the year.Accommodation
You will be hosted in a house inside the Park “Raggio di Sole”, with other international volunteers, EVS volunteers and the workcamp leader. (5 volunteers+EVS+leader).
The house is very close to the centre of town and it has two bedrooms (9 beds in total), two bathrooms, kitchen, big living room, open air area when. The cooking and cleaning in the house is shared in turns among all the volunteers.Language of the project
Volunteers are expected to speak a little bit of a latin language (French, Spanish or Italian) to make communication with locals a lot easier. English is also important for the communication between volunteers. There is a possibility for the volunteers to assist to Italian lessons (not during the summer camps).II. Villa Buri
Description of the activities
The working time will be: 30 hours a week
Villa Buri is situated at the centre of the Adige river bend and it is a monumental palace, with a chapel, some cottages and a majestic landscape-garden, 30ha large, where a large part of it is planted with ancient and precious trees. In September 2001 the management of the villa was given to a no-profit group of associations which have created a project to use and renovate the structure.
The main goal of this project is to affirm a culture of peace, to research a bearable and solid economy, and a right relationship with the environment. To make it possible it is necessary to suggest concrete and visible stimulus, symbolical but clear in order to develop all together a cultural articulated and qualified activity related to peace, environment and an economy of justice. In the planned activities there are some educational and formative ones: meetings, expositions, training courses, the opening of the park, parties, manifestations, events where the international volunteers can take part. The final goal is to restore a part of the park inside four bastions of the XIX century and remains of walls from XVI century.
Volunteers will work on the custody of the park (opening and closing the gates), gardening (taking care of the botanical garden), cleaning, making guest passes, etc. all of which coordinated by a responsible. They will also collaborate with the local group of Legambiente in other activities.
In June 2006 Legambiente Verona achieved to obtain the direct concession of a municipal park near Villa Buri, called Bosco Buri (Woods of Buri). The volunteers will also be involved in the gardening and cleaning of this part of the parkAccomodation: You will be hosted in a house inside the Park “Villa Buri” (3 volunteers). The house, even if distant from Verona Centre, is very close to the main square of one of the most popular neighbourhoods in town. It is also a place that facilitates the contact with the local community and with the various realities that surround the outskirts of the city. It has one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen, a little dining room and a garden(3 beds in all). The cooking and cleaning in the house is divided by turns between all the volunteers.
Language of the project:
Volunteers are expected to speak a little bit of a latin language (French, Spanish or Italian) to make communication with locals a lot easier. English is also important for the communication between volunteers. There is a possiblity for the volunteers to assist to Italian lessons (not during the summer camps). - Notes:
